FOREWORD 

The last two years have made definite changes in the various 
fields of women's work; during the war their activities were greatly- 
extended, and it can no longer be doubted that women are in the 
industrial, business, and professional world to stay. The war deep- 
ened the realization in England and America that, even with a reduced 
working force, maximum production could still be maintained, if the 
efficiency of the workers was increased by training. Now that the 
war is over, it is more necessary than ever that such efforts should be 
continued, and the present period of readjustment is an opportune 
time in which to develop and perfect new programs of training. It is 
not likely that there will be much immigration to this country in the 
near future; labor will be scarce, and woman power must be used as 
economically and as efficiently as possible. 

Up to the present time the majority of women have been engaged 
in routine work, largely due to the fact that they have not been fitted, 
either by training or experience, to hold higher positions. Today, in 
the opinion of the Woman's Division of the TJ. S. Employment Service 
in Connecticut, training is a fundamental issue, as experience has 
demonstrated that training and placement are closely allied. With 
the aim of making the connection between the two still closer, the 
following list of the training courses for vocational and professional 
training, offered to women in the schools and colleges in Connecticut, 
has been compiled. A study of the educational standards of the 
institutions offering these courses would have made the survey more 
valuable, but this was not possible, as an investigation, thorough 
enough to be of service, would have entailed greater expense and a 
larger staff of workers than the Employment Service could afford at 
the present time. Every effort has been made to make the list as 
complete as possible, though undoubtedly some mistakes and omis- 
sions will be found, as it is the first time that anything of the kind 
has been attempted in this state. 

As Connecticut does not offer training for every field of work 
open to women, representative courses given elsewhere have been 
included to show that available training can be had for every occupa- 
tion in which women are working. 

A survey of the current demands for women's work has also been 
included. It is apparent that this is difficult information for the 
schools and colleges to obtain themselves, and it is hoped to make this 
the beginning of a closer cooperation between the educational institu- 
tions in Connecticut and the Employment Service, so that in the future 
the needs for trained women and the courses for training them will 
develop simultaneously. 

This pamphlet has been modeled on the bulletin "Opportunites for 
War-Time Training for Women in New York City", compiled by Miss 
Emma Hirth and issued by the Clearing House for War-Time Training 
for Women, of the Council of Organizations for War Service. The 
Woman's Division of the United States Employment Service wants to 
express its appreciation to Miss Hirth and also to Miss Eugenia 
Wallace of the Employment Service of the Young Women's Christian 
Association in New York for the information and advice which they 
have given it. We want also to thank all the institutions and indi- 
viduals who so kindly responded to the questionnaires which were sent 
out and without whose assistance the present pamphlet would not have 
been possible.

SOME OF THE CURRENT DEMANDS 
FOR TRAINED WOMEN 



AGRICULTURE. 

The tremendous stimulus which Agriculture received during the 
war created a sudden new demand for women as agricultural labor- 
ers. For the last ten or fifteen years, farm help had been increas- 
ingly difficult to obtain, and with the entrance of thousands of men 
into the army and munition factories, the labor shortage became so 
acute that women were called upon to take up farm work of the most 
various kinds. They responded splendidly; under the Woman's Land 
Army of America and as individuals, women proved that there were 
few farm activities that they could not undertake and carry through 
successfully, and they aided materially in increasing the food supply 
of the entire nation. Such a demand, however, was too artificial to 
continue in normal times. Farmers do not seek woman labor until 
the male supply has become exhausted, and it is not likely that the 
demand will be so great for women in agriculture in the near future, 
though this will depend on the general labor situation, which it is 
not yet possible to determine. However, the knowledge and interest 
that women have gained will prove useful to them in the new fields 
that are slowly developing. Given sufficient and proper training, 
women should be successful in managing their own farms and as 
managers for others, in the dairy and poultry business, as truck 
farmers and as nurserymen. They will be needed more and more 
to supervise various types of garden work among children and 
adults, and the time is not far distant when a thorough knowledge 
of agriculture will be considered a necessary part of the training for 
teachers in the country schools. The U. S. Civil Service announces 
open competitive examinations for both men and women as Specialists 
in Animal Husbandry and Dairying, as Assistants in Agricultural In- 
struction, and as Horticulturists; the latter position carries a salary 
of from $3000 to $3240 a year. This country is awakening more and 
more to the possibilities of intelligent farming and the need for 
trained women a& well as men will steadily increase. 

APPLIED ART 

Women as Engineering, Architectural, and Mechanical Draftsmen 

are being employed in an increasing number of offices in Connecticut, 
but a technical college training is necessary for advancement. In 
government work there is no longer the urgent demand for women 
as draftsmen that existed during the war, though the U. S. Civil 
Service still offers open competitive examinations for draftsmen, 
copyist topographic draftsmen and copyist draftsmen, with salaries 
varying from $2 a day to $1200 a year. 

Hand Craft as a profession makes an uncertain career for the 
woman whose livelihood must depend on her own earnings, though 
there is an occasional demand for hand craft teachers. The profession 
of Interior Decoration is already overcrowded and a woman must 
possess exceptional ability and have cap'tal to invest, in order to be 
finally successful. As Illustrators and Designers, women's opportuni- 
ties equal those of men, but the field is so limited that it is not ad- 
visable for anyone who has not very decided talent to enter it. 



BUSINESS 

One point that women who are contemplating a business career 
should fully realize is that, although no business door is permanently 
closed to women, they themselves, to a large extent, must create the 
demand for their work. The business woman, in competition with 
men, labors under a disadvantage because she has to combat the 
prejudice which still exists, that it is impossible for a woman to have 
a business sense. Up to the present time, it has taken a really ex- 
ceptional woman to make a success in the business world, but such 
women are slowly proving that, given equal natural ability, training 
and opportunity, a woman can grasp the essentials of business as 
readily as a man. The most useful qualifications for the work are 
initiative, a pleasant personality and a college education, supple- 
mented by practical experience. College training is, however, not 
absolutely necessary; its lack can be made up by experience and a 
girl can often start at the bottom and work up if she is ambitious 
and sufficiently interested to study available material dealing with 
the subject that she is planning to make her profession. If, after 
the peace treaty is signed, business expands to the extent that is at 
present anticipated, there should be many opportunities for women 
in all its various fields. 

Many of the Banks and Trust Companies in Connecticut are em- 
ploying women in their various departments; there are openings for 
them as tellers, statement clerks, bookkeepers, etc., and a few of 
the banks even go so far as to say that women could hold any posi- 
tion in their firms. However, most of the work which women 
actually do is mainly mechanical requiring only accuracy and care, 
and, though it frequently entails great responsibility, it does not 
offer any opportunity for advancement either financial or otherwise. 

Much the same may be said of the positions open to women in 
the Insurance Companies. They always need women but the posi- 
tions offered are mostly routine office work and it is seldom that a 
woman can advance to any of the higher positions. It might, how- 
ever, be possible for an exceptional woman to become head of a 
department or to specialize in life insurance work for other women. 

There are a few instances of women being successful as Bond 
Brokers and one house in New York has a woman's department, run 
entirely by women, which is very well patronized, but as yet this 
field is untouched in Connecticut. The increased intercourse which 
we are looking forward to with other nations should mean additional 
positions for women in commerce and trade as many commercial 
houses and banks are establishing foreign offices and departments. 
Stenography and Spanish are two of the most useful requisites for 
work of this character. 

To make a success in Advertising, requires a very real advertis- 
ing sense and a knowledge of human psychology for it is necessary, 
in order to sell, to realize what the public will want. The advertis- 
ing campaigns which were carried on during the war have proved 
the value of advertisement and there should be increased opportunities 
in this direction. 

Real Estate is another profession in which women are achieving 
a slow but sure success. 

Women are still an exception, not the general rule, in the higher 
business fields and, on the whole, they are not yet able to compete 
on equal terms with men, but it is necessary for them to realize 
that they themselves must have the initiative to develop the need 
for their work, before the larger opportunities will be open to them. 

CLERICAL WORKERS 

During the present period of readjustment, unemployment has 
been more general among Clerical Workers than among any other 
class of women in the business world. This is largely due to the 

6 



fact that during the war the demands for Stenographers, Book-keep- 
ers, Typists, etc., became so great that standards were lowered until 
only a smattering of knowledge was necessary to command a good 
position and high pay. In consequence the field is now crowded with 
women poorly and insufficiently trained and it is among this group 
that most of the unemployment exists. There is always a demand 
for the well trained intelligent clerical worker, and a thorough general 
education and a good commercial training are the most paying in- 
vestments that a girl can make, in taking up this work, if she is 
looking for advancement to important secretarial or executive posi- 
tions. 

At the present time in Connecticut there is no real call for women 
as Telegraph Operators. 

The need for Telephone Operators continues as before. There is 
always a steady demand for women in this work. 

ECONOMICS 

Although Economics in itself is not a vocational subject, there is 
a definite demand for women with such training, in numerous fields 
of activity. A knowledge of economics is a recognized asset in the 
business and commercial world. Women who have specialized in 
economics are likely to find openings in various kinds of statistical 
work. With the return of industry to its normal condition, it is 
probable that women who have been trained in economic principles 
will be in demand for diverse types of industrial work. Such knowl- 
edge serves as a desirable background for scientific and constructive 
social service. 

HOUSEHOLD ECONOMICS 

The demand for trained women in Household Economics work is 
increasing each year, and the field is so varied that it should interest 
many different types of women. There is constant need for superin- 
tendents of canning kitchens, dietitians, matrons in institutions, caf- 
eteria directors, lunch room managers, teachers, leaders of boys' 
and girls' club work, extension workers through the rural districts, 
demonstrators for private concerns, and the U. S. Civil Service is 
asking for a specialist in Household Economics with a salary of 
from $2500 to $3000 a year; in fact, this work has infinite possibili- 
ties for further development along various lines. People are realiz- 
ing more and more how fundamentally important a scientific knowl- 
edge of Household Economics is, and how through it, the health and 
living conditions of the whole community can be materially improved. 

At the present time some interesting experiments are being made 
in one branch of this work, that of Domestic Labor. Today the sup- 
ply of household workers is in no way equal to the demand; few 
of the women who have been working in munition factories, etc., 
care to take up again work which does not give them regular work- 
ing hours, or the greater freedom to which they have grown accus- 
tomed. Realizing this, housewives in increasing numbers are apply- 
ing business methods to their own homes, and are standardizing the 
hours, wages and general efficiency of the household work. The 
stigma commonly attached to domestic service is false and must be 
eliminated, but to accomplish this requires tact and training on both 
sides. The Home Assistant, who is taking the place of the domestic 
servant, does not eat or sleep in her employer's house; she works on 
an eight-hour day basis, with a forty-four hour week, is paid by 
the hour, with time and one-half for overtime, and has two weeks' 
vacation with pay during the summer. However, on her side, owing 
to the increased cost of labor in employing a woman of this type, 
it is necessary that she be better trained in household management 
than before and have a more intelligent knowledge of her work. 
Outside of Connecticut a few classes for training Home Assistants 
have already been started which, as the demand for them grows, 
will undoubtedly be extended. This experiment is being tried out 



with great success in various parts of the country and it is certainly 
an idea which should interest both modern housewives and the work- 
ers themselves and will do much towards lifting housework to the 
dignified position where it really belongs. 

INDUSTRY AND TRADES 

The census taken in 1910 called attention to the fact that a large 
number of women were already doing Industrial Work; it has been 
stated that at that time 57% of the girls between the ages of 16 and 
20 earned their own living and that 46% of all the working women in 
Connecticut were industrial workers. No definite figures concern- 
ing the present decade can be obtained until the returns of the 1920 
census are available but it is a commonly accepted fact that during 
the war a very large number of women not having worked in industry 
before entered the industrial field. Though questioned by some, it is 
acknowledged by many, especially those who have had the opportunity 
to give the subject scientific study, that a largely increased number 
of women will now remain in industry. Recognizing this fact, the 
need of constructive industrial training is very apparent, for no 
woman can develop her highest efficiency without training. Con- 
necticut lacks the possibility of trade training to a marked degree as 
practically the only trade training offered is in Dressmaking and 
Millinery. It is true that a few of the industrial positions open to 
women have required much specialized knowledge, partly because 
women have been satisfied to do work which paid them a moderate 
wage and required practically no training. It should be realized 
that proper training, even of brief duration would be of great bene- 
fit to the woman herself, and at the same time make her more 
valuable to her employer. During the war, many manufacturers 
realized this and Vestibule Schools were instituted in their factories, 
where girls became proficient in simple process work, but this is not 
sufficient; it is now really necessary for a girl to have some general 
knowledge of machinery and some knowledge of present industrial 
conditions. 

Salesmanship offers an interesting career to a woman who has 
initiative, patience, tact and a knowledge of human nature. There 
is today a demand for good saleswomen in all branches of the pro- 
fession as the department stores and other trades have been very 
under-manned during the war, and they are now filling up their 
ranks. Some of the larger stores offer excellent opportunities, posi- 
tions of real responsibility, and high salaries to women who are 
ambitious and who can prove themselves well fitted to the task as 
Buyers and Traveling Saleswomen. The schools and classes for 
salesmanship, which are being established in various parts of the 
country are tending to raise the standards of work by increasing 
the worker's efficiency and financial value. 

It is not possible today to determine what the demands for 
Employment Managers are going to be in the near future. It is work 
which has the greatest possibilities of development, but now that the 
war is over, there is a chance that the market may be overcrowded 
temporarily. Employment management is a profession for which 
women are particularly well suited and there is no doubt that, as 
soon as normal conditions in industry prevail, there will be a great 
demand for women in this work, especially by those factories which 
employ women workers. 

LANGUAGES 

The general trade conditions of the business world are gradually 
assuming a more normal aspect, and the chances are that, with the 
signing of peace, our foreign trade will be greatly stimulated and 
extended. Up to now, in this country, the knowledge of a language 
other than English has seldom been considered a vital necessity in 



the field of business, but times have changed and a thorough knowl- 
edge of a foreign tongue is now a valuable asset for the further 
development of many businesses and professions. Spanish should 
be a particularly useful language as our intercourse with South 
America is growing rapidly, and there is an increased demand for 
workers with a knowledge of commercial Spanish in shipping houses, 
banks, commercial houses, etc. The Bureau of Foreign and Domestic 
Commerce of the Federal Department of Commerce is holding open 
competitive examinations in Dano-Norwegian, Dutch, French, Ger- 
man, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish and Swedish, with sala- 
ries varying from $1200 to $1800 a year. A complete understanding 
of a language may often prove an opening to wider opportunities, 
and it is a very necessary preface to the study of medicine, industry 
and science. 

PROFESSIONS 

FINE ARTS 

As soon as normal conditions prevail, building will be resumed 
on a larger scale than ever before and Architecture, which has prac- 
tically lain dormant during the war, should come into its own again. 
This profession has not thus far attracted many women, but it 
should offer real opportunities to them today, particularly in work 
of a domestic and residential character, a branch of Architecture 
for which they are well fitted and where their absence has long been 
felt. Men have neglected this side of the profession for larger and 
more important work, leaving it in the hands of the poorer architects 
and builders, and women should find a field opening to them, rich in 
possibilities. 

Landscape Architecture is an interesting career for women and, 
if successful, is very remunerative as well, but the fact that it is a 
luxury for most people prevents the demand from ever becoming 
very extensive, so that it is a profession that should not be entered 
without much consideration. 

In Painting, Drawing, Sculpture and Music, women's opportuni- 
ties are equal to those of men, but the fields are limited and over- 
crowded. Anyone planning to make one of these professions their 
career should realize that success is slow in coming, and be willing 
to make the necessary financial sacrifice that such work usually 
entails. 

ENGINEERING 

There cannot be said to be a very insistent demand for women 
Engineers at the present moment, but work of this kind must depend 
for its success on the individual woman, and, with the splendid op- 
portunities for training that are now open to them, the women who 
are naturally fitted for it, should be able in time to convince the 
world of their ability and skill. 

JOURNALISM 

There are frequently openings for Advertising Agents, Publicity 
Experts and Reporters which offer a future full of interest for girls 
with a news sense. Moreover the woman is man's equal on a news- 
paper and is paid what she earns, not what she can get, as the rule 
so often is in other professions. The campaigns conducted during 
the war have shown the importance of intelligent publicity and the 
demands will continue for similar work in the future. The fact may 
also be considered, that a position on a good newspaper is a very 
valuable preparation for many different lines of work. 

LAW 

The Yale Law School has recently opened its doors to women, 
thereby adding another name to the long list of colleges throughout 
the country where women may study law, and the fact that, during 

9 



the past few years, women have been appointed as Judges, Prosecut- 
ing and District Attorneys, and Masters in Chancery is significant 
to show that they are making the most of the opportunities open to 
them. 

LIBRARY WORK 

Like teaching, Library Work is a profession that requires a long 
period of training and devotion to the work, and offers small financial 
recompense, and, as the demands for well educated women increase 
and the ranks of librarians are therefore being depleted, the demand 
for librarians is increasing. Though financial returns are small, the 
life of a librarian has many advantages. It offers great variety and 
intellectual stimulation and a real knowledge of books; it offers 
possibility for study and it entails human relationships and inter- 
course with all those in the community who seek to develop intellectu- 
ally. It also offers the rare assurance that old age will not deprive 
the librarian of her position. In general, business houses, banks, 
factories, and publishing houses give librarians far better salaries 
but while openings of this sort are increasing in the United States 
as a whole, Connecticut has as yet few such positions to offer. 

MEDICINE, ETC. 

Medicine offers one of the finest careers that exist for women 
today. During the war, a number of the largest and most conserva- 
tive hospitals opened their doors to women Interns, and today women 
can obtain training in most of the good medical schools in the 
country. The Women's Overseas Hospital, by its adaptability and 
skill, has further proved the ability of women in this profession and 
the demands for women Doctors and Surgeons are steadily increasing 
and will continue to do so. As private practitioners women are doing 
particularly valuable work with women and children, and for the 
woman who does not care for this branch of the profession, the oppor- 
tunities are even larger in the fields of Public Health work, social and 
scientific work, as Medical Inspectors in schools, factories, etc. 

DENTISTRY AND ORAL HYGIENE 

It is an established fact that there is now a real need for women 
Dentists. They have proved themselves particularly successful in 
preventative work and in work with children and as today these are 
becoming two of the most important branches of the dental profes- 
sion, there should be great possibilities for women to develop their 
work in the future. 

Oral Hygiene fills a want that has long been felt and before many 
years elapse will undoubtedly be an established part of every school 
clinic. 

NURSING 

During the past two years, due to the war and the influenza 
epidemic, the shortage of Nurses became so acute that many methods 
were adopted to urge some women to take up this profession. Hos- 
pitals enlarged their training facilities and offered special short 
courses for Nurses' Assistants, the army opened huge training camps 
of its own, a training school was started at Vassar for college gradu- 
ates and, in addition, a country wide drive was carried on to obtain 
recruits. It might seem, in consequence, that the supply of nurses 
would be more than sufficient to meet the demands today, but the 
field of nursing has broadened so enormously, particularly in the 
line of Public Health Nursing, that its needs are still far from being 
met. Nurses are needed in increasing numbers in infant welfare and 
prenatal nursing, school nursing, tuberculosis and contagion nursing, 
hospital social service, industrial nursing, and mental hygiene nursing, 
and not only is the nursing field itself enlarging, but it is becoming 
an established fact in more and more communities that a Public 
Health Nurse is a necessity, not a luxury, and the demands are 
growing accordingly. 

10 



RELIGIOUS WORK 

The churches are endeavoring to broaden their fields of service, 
and consequently will need increasing numbers of Deaconesses, 
Pastor's Assistants, domestic and foreign Missionaries, Y. W. C. A. 
Secretaries, etc. Until recently the churches have had to depend 
almost entirely upon volunteer service, which is always an uncertain 
quantity and is frequently lacking in knowledge of modern methods 
of procedure; proper training should help to make this assistance 
more efficient and increase the value of the work accomplished. 

TEACHING 

There is a great demand today for good Teachers in the public 
schools of Connecticut as there is at present a very real shortage 
throughout the country in the teaching profession. This is largely 
due to the low salaries that teachers reecive which do not compare 
favorably with those in other professions. This is undoubtedly one 
of the factors that tend to make three years the average term of 
teaching in Connecticut. 

Teaching is no longer, as formerly, the only career open to 
women of education. Other fields are calling them which are equally 
interesting and far more profitable and until the public awakens to 
the realization that teachers, even in small schools, should have a 
higher financial value to the community they serve than the school 
janitors, as • is sometimes the case today, conditions will not ma- 
terially improve. On the other hand, there are many girls who enter 
the teaching profession who have not the proper qualifications and 
who drift into teaching merely because they can think of nothing 
they care to do more with consequently poor results both for them- 
selves! and for the children they teach. 

Teaching, however, offers a career rich in rewards other than 
money; for those who have the gift for it and a genuine sound en- 
thusiasm, no profession offers greater possibilities for service and 
there are opportunities of advancement for women teachers as de- 
partment heads, principals, and superintendents. 

When ex-Emperor William laid the foundation of modern Ger- 
many, he turned first to the teachers of the elementary schools 
for assistance, and they played an important part in the build- 
ing up of the German military machine. Germany has demon- 
strated that the teachers of a nation' can become a great influence 
for evil, but it is just as true that, realizing their own power, they 
can become in this country, the great force to instill in the coming 
generations the fundamental democratic principles of the nation. 

PHYSICAL TRAINING 

Even before the war we were beginning to recognize the impor- 
tance to a nation of good bodily health among its citizens, and the 
discovery by the selective Draft Boards of the physical unfitness and 
undevelopment among the men in this country has served to deepen 
this realization and to awaken us to the necessity of correcting it. 
An increased interest in physical training will mean the extension of 
work of this kind in schools, gymnasia, playgrounds and recreational 
centers, and more teachers will be needed for work with physical and 
mental defectives, for corrective gymnastic work, educational danc- 
ing, etc., and therefore there will be many openings for those who 
are interested in developing this work. 

SCIENTIFIC WORK 

During the war the Government Departments offered scientific 
women an unrestricted field in which to prove their ability and 
large number of them took advantage of the opportunity. Before 
the war women had found it difficult to advance in scientific work 
beyond mere routine tasks, and it will be interesting to see how 

11 



far the foothold which they have gained during the last two years, 
will carry them. The demands are no longer so unusual, but the 
United States Civil Service is still holding open competitive examina- 
tions for a Bacteriologist, for a Mineral Geographic Aid, a Mineral 
Geographer, Assistant in Pharmacology, Associate and Junior Chem- 
ists, and for some other minor positions. It is still too early to 
predict what the future demands for women with scientific training 
will be in other fields. There are not many openings in Connecticut 
today but it will be only a question of time before industrial plants 
will be increasing their laboratory staffs and there should before 
long be opportunities in Public Health work, Research Laboratories, 
etc. 

SOCIAL WORKERS 

Of late years the general awakening of a community spirit has 
led to an increased demand for trained social workers, and various 
phases of community work which were stimulated during the war 
are being embodied in permanent programs. Thoroughly trained 
Case Workers are urgently needed and the demand is growing for 
trained workers in the field of hospital social service, in addition to 
the work of Charity Organization Societies and the Home Service 
Section of the Red Cross. Specialized workers are required for Rec- 
reational Work, Americanization activities, and Child Welfare agen- 
cies, and with the extension of the work of the Y. W. C. A. and kin- 
dred associations, there is likely to be a particularly active field for 
social workers trained as Recreational Directors. The demand for 
adequately trained social workers in Connecticut has far exceeded 
the supply, and with the extension of the child-placing work of the 
State Board of Charities, the state will need more social workers 
who have had training with child-caring agencies.
